We will be traveling for the next three days so we decided to meet up with Joy to exchange presents. Joy moved out of our neighborhood and is living just a couple miles away at her daughter Cindy’s home:
It is still the middle of the pandemic so we are wearing our masks:
We had some homemade goodies and a handmade gift for her as well.
Of course she had some gifts for us too:
Crafts for Rachel.A sweet treat filled box for Lizzy.
We had a nice visit with Joy. We are so happy she still lives close where we can visit her!

She did a fantastic job!
There were several other very good performances:
